Repair in the apartment is a troublesome and difficult job. We have prepared for you a list of 7 errors that can be tolerated when repairing the bathroom.
Absence of outlets
There are times when people forget about rosettes in the bathroom, do little (only for a washing machine) or just think that they do not need them, and then they ask themselves how to dry their hair with a hairdryer, shave with an electric shaver or where to charge an electric toothbrush? That such questions did not arise, make at least two sockets.
Unprotected outlets
Sockets in the bathroom must necessarily be protected from moisture (with a cover that covers the connectors).
Incorrect bath installation
When installing the bath, please specify if it has a slope. Plumbing pipes should go to the drain under a slight slope. If you do not think about it in time, it may happen that the water will go bad and an unpleasant smell of musty water will spread in the bathroom.
Absence of forced drawing
This item is relevant for both the bathroom and the toilet.
Take care to immediately install a forced draft, which begins to work when you turn on the light (for the toilet) or when you press the button (for the bathroom). The exhaust hood in the bathroom will help the room to be ventilated more quickly.
Not enough light
In addition to ceiling lighting, the bathroom needs local light sources, at least near the mirror. Choose warm lighting: first, it flatters the exterior, and secondly, it seems that the bathroom is warmer than it really is. And, of course, for reasons of comfort.
Slippery floor
Bathroom – it’s quite traumatic place: you can fall in the bath itself, and on the smooth wet floor. Or do not choose glossy surfaces for the flooring, or if your heart is unevenly breathing to a smooth porcelain stoneware, lay a soft mat on top of it, which will help you stand firmly on your feet.
Few storage locations
Very often, when making repairs, we are guided by the thought: “Oh, how beautiful it will be!” And completely forget that you need somewhere to store shampoos, creams, towels, household chemicals and anything else! It is worthwhile to think about organization of storage areas in advance. Firstly, you will be able to choose some furniture (for example, a sink) already with built-in drawers, and secondly, after the repair is completed, you will not be expected to have a place to hang a dryer or nowhere to put spare shower gels.
